Not the big ones, though. LSU was about where we currently are BEFORE Lawrence, Divinity, and Allen committed.

Smith and Alexander were once top 10 recruits. Now, they are 4-stars.

It is what it is, but denying the Bama bump is ridiculous at this point. Regardless of the reason(s), it clearly exists.

The only thing that can never be denied is the LSU fanbase here's victim mentality regarding anything to do with Alabama.

Maybe it exists because kids go to Bama, perform well, and get drafted to the league - both in general, and in the first round - at a higher rate than any other school in recent years.

Seems like those doing the rankings might assume that if Bama is offering a kid he must be really good and, perhaps, worth a deeper look.

What Bama class would you say didn't produce? Any kid who has signed with Bama since 2008 has won a national title and been part of a class with multiple future first round picks.

At some point you've got to give credit where due.
